五月天 -S.H.E

黄金海岸的岸边
我们肩并着肩
洁净的蓝天
清澈的水面
吻成一条海平线

看你温柔的双眼
弹着吉他的弦
歌词是诺言
旋律是依恋
唱出一首五月天

五月的天
刚诞生的夏天
我们之间
才完成的爱恋
紧握的手里面
有好多明天

五月的天
梦开始要鲜艳
前方蜿蜒
一长串的心愿
我们一天一天慢慢实现

this song is suuuper sweet. loves. especially the chorus and front part. :D will upload the song asap. (".)

"TERM ASSESSMENT"

2007-05-04T19:56:00.000+08:00

oh wells. everyone's busy mugging for the so-called rvip "term assessment". sound damn high class but it's not at all. i think it's the same la. just that we dont have paper 1 &2.

but every paper is 1.5 hours. alrights this smth i'm quite satisfied abt. :D

so out of 8 papers, we've done 5 already. left with singapore studies &biology on monday, math on tuesday.

for me, the 5 paper done were satsfactory larh. but i dont expect alot. physics is a killer. =X

like wth i didnt do lots and lots and lots of questions. upon attempting section A mcq i knew i couldnt finish. it was super hard &i felt i took like 30-40 minutes on mcq itself. with many doubts. hai.

i think among all the sections i screwed up section C most. last 15 minutes and i'm left with the whole of section C. i tried to pia but to no avail. i did selective questions only. mainly the application ones cos theory nid to write alot.

when it's times up, i flipped through and there's quite alot of question in section B which i didnt attempt. so it's like i'm v. v. vulnerable.

during syf, remembered we bandsmen "aim to do our best &most importantly no regrets"?

yupp thats exactly the virtue i'm holding up right now during this stressful period. despite the amount of undone questions which would likely to cost a bomb of marks, i didnt felt sad. swear. i didnt regret at all. which was rather comforting. :]

i didnt cry larh. nor did i repent and stuffs. i was okae larh. i'm prepared for the worst. when i get back the results then maybe i'll feel sad larh.

if i fail then thats it. gone case for my physics cos term 1 i already got like super low. a failure in this would likely mean a failure in the whole thing so i shall just say good luck to me barh. :D

the rest of the papers were okaaaeee larh. not v. confident in neither paper. not a single one. first time lehh. lol. i used to be confident in at least one paper last time. now it's a different case. everything changes.

i dont seem to have any goals in my education. i've already made plans for the future. :]

hahahahaha. :D

ADDITION OF INFO-

2007-04-18T22:26:00.000+08:00

-read previous post first-

i missed out a big reason totally.

dont teenage people like us oso have to handle social problems? health problems for some as well.

those impacts i receive on and off. teachers pissing me off, maligning me for stuffs i didnt do wrongly. there's oso family problems okae.

today i talked to my pa mates backstage. like totally spill out all my troubles, my rants and all to them. i really really cannot understand why this must happen to a teenager like me. maybe to u too. or to anyone.

the problems faced in the previous post, plus this huge problem here too.

i dont think this is what a teenager can handle. if you say that we have to handle this -social problems as mention abv. i think i wld agree that it's part and parcel. BUT the accumulation of his huge huge thing. from social problems, to no life at all, to the oppression that teachers do on us, to the amount of stress, to the fact that we already feel like dying, yet we nid to handle such stuffs.

:/ it's like end of this world for me. i think if i dont have a high EQ or smth, i would have committed suicide. :o

read the recent news about the s. korean guy who gone bonkers and shot anyone he sees in school? he killed a total of 33 people in 90s.

for what? well, he was undergoing stress too. relationship problems, bully, oppression. thats why, he suffered depression. he cant take it anymore. &just shot his friends, his teachers.

hai. why liddat?

my dear rv- (long post)

2007-04-18T21:47:00.000+08:00

hai. school life is getting meaningless. swear.

in sec 2, we were not so inclined towards rvip curriculum.

now in sec 3, everything is all about rvip. they give us wierd stuffs and expect us to master them immediately. what do i mean? well u see, when did we ever come across reading &writing article, when did we ever come across analysing logic of articles -those purpose, information, inference.

the answer is simple -just this year.

&immediately after they introduced this new thingy, we are supposed to take assessments on them liow. well put them in simple words, we are supposed to sit for tests related to such stuffs. take note that it's when we were all new and fresh on this thing alright.

&are we expected to do well in them? obviously! thats what tests are for. but can we do well in them when we havent even familiarise and adapt to this whole new style. i doubt so. &i think to do well counts on your luck. thats it.

&who said rvip gives us a broader range and time for our work. who said we can have those months supposedly for preparation of o levels for our own curriculum. it seems time is so packed. it seems we are going against time. like time is running out.

hey this isnt what a normal secondary school kid should undergo. we are like other normal secondary school kid. we cant handle such profound stuffs. we cant handle the stuffs supposedly for the matured-ones. not that i'm saying we are not matured enough, or that we are childish. but the fact is that we arent supposed to handle such rigorous stuffs. in fact i think i cant. such stuffs are experienced when we have a more matured mind, when we grow up, when we mature, when we gather experience. not now pls. i think it's hindering my growth.

take for example a young teenage boy. he's suppose to be enjoying life, playing games, going out with friends, spending time with family. &obviously go to school and study! but, imagine him going to school early in the morning at 6.00am in the morning, ends school at an average timing of 3.45pm (mind you). &travels back home. what time would u expect him to reach home? 4.00pm? obviously not. 15 mins is nt enough. maybe 4.45 - 5.15. so he eats &bathe. maybe for around 45 minutes in all? this would end at around 6.00pm. &then does he do his homework? yes of course! lessons ending at 3.45pm. means more lessons, then more homework! so he cant possibly finish everything at 8.00pm. only 2 hours for like the huge amount of homework? (maybe 6-8 lessons of homework -this is TRUE)

so maybe the fastest he can finish is 10.00pm? alright. so if he nids 8 hours of sleep per day, he nids to sleep immediately after his homework. so what does this imply? no leisure activities, no talking and relaxation with family, no entertainment, simply NO LIFE.

this is EXACTLY what i'm undergoing right NOW. i've lost contact with this world. it's like i have no life at all. i dunno whats happening around the world, i'm totally constrained to STUDYING STUDYING STUDYING. i cant watch the news, i cant watch documentaries (if this is what the school wants us to do), i cant watch tv dramas, i cant watch tv serials. i cant play games, i cant even spend time talking and interacting with my family. i'm like in my own jail.

i wake up, go to school, see chow everyday till evening 4, go home, homework, sleep. then wake up again.

wow. rv breeds such students. i'm impressed. come back to the question, who said rvip provides us with a MORE holistic development, how said rvip provides me with MORE time to work on education. who said all those good stuffs about it in the first place? those yak yak yak thats deluding young talents like us. thats hindering in our growth and development.

even teachers themselves were shock to hear that we had lessons in our curriculum time till 345. isnt 3.45pm equivalent to 4.00pm? it's totally cheating our feelings. like those $1.99 stuffs in those valu marts or wdv. isnt it still $2? moreover we nid time to pack up and walk out of school to wait for the bus.

i was like terribly drained out cos of this school. it's totally sucking out all those endorphins in me. all those hyper-active cells in me, all the energy. i didnt came to school for 2 days already cos of fatigue. how bad can that be? :/

i went to the doctor, and asked me about my current situation all that. he said that he's dumbfounded by how rigorous the curriculum of sec sch students in singapore. he said that the most important thing is we must have more sleep. i told him where's all our sleep with homework from 6-8 lessons per day, 2 hours of travelling etc etc. note that we still have our own commitments such as cca, competitions &all. plus where did our leisure, entertainment, rest, relaxation go to? i totally told him all that. &i said it's only happening to rv. though maybe other schools oso liddat but who knws. definitely NOT those normal sec sch.

he asked if i'm stressed. &if i've thought of dying, killing myself. i told him yupp. i'm stressed. i thought of killing myself. :x

but i allow my happiness and motivation to get the better of them. i see my family as a source of motivation. despite the time and effort and dedication devoted to band for syf, i still managed to pull through. cos my other big source is band &music. most importantly is my friends. i go to school, see my friends, &have this feeling that the whole world loves me.

if i go, and disappear. what will happen to them? no more seeing me. &me no more seeing them.

i'm not tasting life. not at all. what if i just die liddat? wont it be wasted? wont i NOT enjoy life just because of this rvip thing. cos of this torturous curriculum? it's a waste to die because of that and thus not living life to the fullest.

i yearn to get out of education, to go into the working society. to see how it is. would it be as rigorous as this? i dunno. but i would want to try.

rahh. this kind of sums up everything inside me. nice post aint it? :]

2007-04-15T16:08:00.000+08:00

some photos i took during a memorable day of my life -syf.

the journey of myself tgt with other bandsmen working hard just for that wonderful performance on 12 april. this journey is the most memorable journey in my life. it's like so magical. those time &dedication put in.

sunrise &stabat mater dolorosa.

this 2 songs are rly fantastic. i want to hear our rendition of both. :]

random photos >>

WENHUI &ME

IRENE &ME

GIMLING &ME

CHAIYING &ME

seniors are stepping dwn liow. will miss them loads. this journey is the last one that i'll experience as a junior. the next ones we would be all by ourselves. handling impt stuffs.

hmm, i remember when i was still a noob-noob sec 1, i thought band was like whoa! consists of super enthu seniors. they were v. strict and firm. v. disciplined. den i owaes v. scared of the excos. :x

time flies. literally flies. now we are going to be the senior of the senior liow. wonder how it'll be like.

break for mugging-

2007-04-14T12:38:00.000+08:00

alright, now dere's like no more cca for the time being. rahh. means it's back to mugging and all. so sians larh. ><

today had napfa. i did quite well for the other items except one which was damn unreasonable. walao. feel damn gekked and all. wdv larh.

lots of hwk. indeed taking 9 subjects is no easy feat larh. i cant laugh and gossip early in the morning anymore like how i did with 2I`06. it's like every morning, whenever there's physics hwk, everyone will either pia or copy or check their answers.

remember i once hated languages? i still do so. bt only 1 language -which is HCL. i just cant do well in this subject lo. i'm getting better in my english. &i'm quite satisfied larh. :]

off to pia hwk. i didnt went school on friday. too tired liow. missed alot alot. must jiayou lo. C:

rvcb syf 2007 !

2007-04-14T00:07:00.000+08:00

it's over, just like that.

our <6 months of hardwork, time, dedication. i'll miss those rigorous band practices on tuesday, thursday, friday and saturday. i'll miss morning practices everyday. i'll miss morning runs 3 times a week.

i will miss helping percussion with their heavy instruments. the sense of accomplishment i get after every help. and those percussionists saying a big thank you.

frankly speaking, i'll miss ms chan's scoldings. i miss chionging part E of stabat, i miss listening to the moving part J. the slow part from J to K to L to M. these parts usually hook my string of thoughts. &make me want to cry.

on 12april, it was my first time reaching rv so early. we received well wishes, ate breakfast tgt, warm up and tuned. at singapore conference hall (sch), we tuned for 10 mins, and waited anxiously for our turn. it seemed v. near, yet so far.

i was the 2nd person to enter the hall, behind huipeng who was 1st. this was it, the time we all aimed for. the time we all waited for. i told myself to treasure this moment, for it was magical. but before i knew it, it was already the last note of sunrise. it was v. beautiful. the best sunrise i've played. soft &sweet.

den it was stabat. we played it, like how we are supposed to. i was satisfied. but i walked out feeling v. lost. i didnt know what to do. there was this extreme mix up of feelings welling inside. it was super jumbled.

we didnt aim for gold with honours, nor did we aim for gold. we aimed to play our best. i think we did it. we made it.

i told myself whatever the results, i would cry. we got gold. i was v. happy. cos it was extremely difficult to get gold at the state of other school bands now.

out of 100+ school bands, 2 got gold with honours, 10 got gold. and we are the 10th gold band. :]

but i still cried, cos i suddenly thought of the process, the journey.

i cannot accept the fact that syf is over. our hardwork, all gone in a few hours. i missed sectional practices, where i tried my utmost best of the best to play stabat with feelings, to pitch every note. i tried my best to play sunrise as smooth as ever, as sweet as nothing.

i missed tutor, i miss band practices per se.

rmb i said i still have the passion to attend school is because of the band practices that i have? it seems now attending school isnt as fun anymore.

由你给我的幸福

爱我非你莫属
也许会笑着哭
但那人是你所以不怕苦
oh~ ooh~

i miss ms lee! ;(

2007-03-19T23:15:00.000+08:00

omg omg omg. miss lee is totally leaving rv tmr. hai. sadded lorh.

remembering last time sec 1, she was our form teacher! it was miss lee who made me score biology with flying colours! it's because of her that i love biology more than any other sciences. (though it sems like it isnt the point now)

she always leave me and huipeng into laughing fits because of her funny actions and all.

remember during pdp, we USED to laugh at her for dozing off behind the class while some external instructor is like teaching us whatsoever.

it was her who taught us how to FEEL the way we breathe etc etc. and her wrong spelling for alot of scientific terms used in biology.

&&also her telling us how marvellous a website could be in finding all facts about sciences and all. and in the end she gave us www.google.com, pronouning google as 'goggle'.

&also ms lee telling us to be careful not to break the round bottom flask. but if we want can, then we must PAY.

&also how she let us sniff our first smell of ammonia.

&also our first class outing to botanical gardens where ms lee was our tour guide.

&how she gets excited over many many unique and beautiful plants.

omg. ms lee i'll miss you loads. thank you for making my sec 1 life so full of joy and fun. :]

what is true beauty?

2007-03-19T20:59:00.000+08:00

i'm just feel so random now and feel like posting up my persuasive speech for lang arts. heheh.

You may have seen it - the commercial which features a montage of portraits of young girls accompanied by super imposed tags set to a choir of girls sing about “true colors shining through”. A redhead “hates her freckles,” an Asian “wishes she were blond,” a thin girl is “afraid she's fat,” and a mildly unattractive girl is “afraid she's ugly.”

So, is beauty really about being skinny, or about being like the model featured in the posters along the streets?

It appears that the word “beauty” has – in many ways – become defined as “physical attractiveness.” This wrong definition of beauty is communicated through the mass media and has been assimilated through popular culture.

Recently, have you seen the beautiful model for the no rules gem of citigems? The image must have been altered or retouched in any way. Her face must have been photo-shopped. Her nose made sharper, her lips made thicker and her cheeks made higher.

The media and advertising has set an unrealistic standard of beauty that most women can never achieve.

It is this ideal that many women measure themselves against and aspire to attain.

However, because this ideal is extremely difficult to achieve, women find themselves as not beautiful.

This can contribute to unhappiness and low self-esteem and self-worth.

In our society, our perception of beauty becomes distorted!

True beauty is not driven by theory or ideology, but by its resonance in the hearts and minds of those who encounter it.

The components of true beauty not only include physical attractiveness; they also include happiness, kindness, wisdom, dignity, love, authenticity and self-realization.

Hey, all of you here are beautiful. You may not be as physically attractive as any super top models in the world, but you could be superior in your dignity, self-worth, and kindness.

So, never feel that you are not beautiful because everyone deserves to feel good about herself and see how beautiful she really is.

back to school. o well. ><

2007-03-18T19:26:00.000+08:00

背叛 -曹格
雨
不停落下来
花
怎么都不开
尽管我细心灌溉
你说不爱就不爱
我一个人
欣赏悲哀
爱
只剩下无奈
我一直不愿再去猜
钢琴上黑键之间
永远都夹着空白
缺了一块就不精采

紧紧相依的心如何
say goodbye
你比我清楚还要我说明白
爱太深会让人疯狂的勇敢
我用背叛自己
完成你的期盼
把手放开不问一句
say goodbye
当作最后一次对你的溺爱
冷冷清清淡淡今后都不管
只要你能愉快

有一句感慨
还能够跟谁对白
在你关上门之前
替我再回头看看
那些片段
还在不在
心

sing along wif it! :]

DEMORALISED-

2007-03-12T19:16:00.000+08:00

Chemical Science Fair

well, hwachong totally owned the science fair wif their very chim titles and well presentation.

it was a great experience for me. guess i presented quite well in front of the judges. at least i wasnt THAT nervous or what larh.

i was very relax larh. just presenting our results and what we learnt to them.

Life is not all about results okae?

there are many stuffs in life worth the mention and effort. not merely results and homework and school or wdv.

sometimes one would succeed greatly in whatever aspects and definitely it's worth the praise and all.

i dont like it when people start comparing. they start harping on how bad they are when indeed they did marvelous-ly well.

yeah. i think we should all look ahead, and use it as a stepping stone to one's aim at the end of the day.

&thanks to all those people who gave me the encouragement. these are the people with a purpose in life. not like those who dont have and only think about results and being the best.

such people are creating their own 监狱. :]

okae enough said. to me, there's more to life. for one, it's music. :]

secondary 3 term 1 results

2007-03-11T21:07:00.000+08:00

got back results and it seriously sucks. omg. it's the worst results i've got larh. it seems like other classes they did fairly well then our class oso not good. ><

must be the stress we created among ourselves which cause us to not do well as a whole. hai.

for me, the reason is so simple:

i'm sitting beside disgusting &selfish muggers of the ultimate muggers. worse of all i'm surrounded by them!

behind me got 2, beside me got 1. these 3 people are crazy. they are very selfish so if you want to ask them anything regarding work, can just forget it. cos they will simply tell you that they will not share wif us or what.

and they have no purpose in life at all. they only care about homework, results, and of course comparing wif others if they are the best.

i cant stand such people. yet everyday in school i have to face them.

the start of term 2 better be a good one for me. i hope i get to sit beside &around vry very nice and encouraging people. yeah. :]

i've set my target for term 2. and as a whole semester. i must strive for it! :]

jyjy gambate. :] with a purpose, life seems more meaningful.

random stressed picture !

2007-03-06T13:10:00.000+08:00

happened to came across this picture in my folder. so just decided to be random and post it up. :]

utterly tired.

2007-03-06T12:53:00.000+08:00

i didnt go school today. was too tired that i bet i cant concentrate in class. so there's no point larh. what's more i needed a good rest. so decided not to go. :]

now lagging at home. &obviously having a good rest. i sms-ed rachael and huipeng. must thank rachael and huipeng for their utmost support and help! haha. yea they are my true friends. love your. :]

this friday will be the last day of term 1. hmm quite fast wor. like just remembered i just entered 3A and all. it seems time really flies. getting older liow. :/ haha.

anw there's this earthquake in indonesia with a scale of 6.6 if i'm not wrong. then the southern part of singapore, which is the CBD there larh. can actually feel some tremors. o.o

did u guys in school felt it? if students can feel it in school i think it's quite cool. i think there will be a commotion. haha.

alright, off to lag again. :]

recounting x country :]

2007-03-05T21:21:00.000+08:00

whee! i believed i ran to my expectations this time round! :] very happy. though it was so tiring.

i clocked myself and my timing was 24:45 minutes. nearing 25 minutes but still managed to pass that 25 minutes target! :]

i guessed i ran quite fast for the first half. then for the last half i saw the HUGE loop and was utterly demoralised and stunned by how much more is left and kind of slowed down. but the last few hundred metres, i just ran through the finishing line. yeah yeah. :]

the run told me alot of things. as i ran past many many band members, they all cheered for me to go on. whoa was so touched sia!

this showed me the concern and encouragement i get from my fellow bandsmen. whee. i could feel the spirit of rv bandsmen! :]

was out of breath and mind was swirling after that long run. very tired and lethargic. feel like pon-ing school tmr. :o

annual school cross country :]

2007-03-04T22:32:00.000+08:00

yes i shall post and update more. &do remember to tag arh. :]

tmr will be x country. heheh! i'm rather excited. i used to like x country. those non-competitive one. LOL. cos u just run like the wind as free as any flying object without worrying about timing and all.

&i also used to like running at macritchie. the first few kilometres before getting out onto the road, nature would embrace you as you run. the trees and the fresh cold air around the canopy. haha.

tmr it would be at the old turf city along bukit timah road. hope it would be a nice place to run x country. haha. i also hope to maintain my pace for 2.4km during pe and win participation points for gryphon! haha.

my gryphon tee is too small liow. when i run the shirt would be lifted up and i would be exposed! :o

nvm at least got ying's size 16 gryphon tee to help me. &maybe weichang's lower secondary one too. haha.

tmr also got 2I`o6 dinner at west mall! shuang. i miss my secondary 2 life. fun-filled and love bits in the air! LOL.

cant wait. i shall run like the carefree wind and forget my troubles along.

iconlicious !

2007-03-04T19:34:00.000+08:00

sorry for the change of blogskin (again). i decided to settle down on this cos it's very cute! heheh!

the margin for the posts is quite narrow. so from now on i shall paragraph my posts more!

finally, a weekend spent without homework. but i need to clear up my file and rewrite the notes i wrote in pencil.

i've learnt to write very very fast in pencil so that i wont miss a thing from the teacher's presentation. the handwriting is like horrendous and it's very different from my normal handwriting! :/

yesterday had exhange with yuhua! and choir also had exhange with many many other schools. so can hear them halleluya-ing outside the hall while we were practising. guess we didnt chicken out this time round!

our performance was satisfying i guess! &i'm happy. ((:

SYF is nearing. &i'm feeling it. lets all jiayou! i think we still have a long way to go. but nothing is impossible! jiayou jiayou!

light up my world

2007-03-01T21:15:00.000+08:00

new blogskin. and the giving-me-oh-so-much-problem cbox is back alrights. and now u guys can 有话就说! hehe.

this blogskin is very simple and cute yet meaningful. thats why i love it alot.

got back some of my results. chinese was horrendous. i totally flunk it. failed TERRIBLY. physics was rather satisfying! ((:

tmr gonna get back biology, chemistry and english? hai. better get good grades to cheer me up. chinese is a failure. i suck in it. sigh. looks like i'm so gonna screw up these test. :/ oh well.

i think i'm not used to class test cos they usually only inform us a week before or even just 2-3 days before (like chem). at least for mid years and end of years they will inform us suuuuper early. so can pei yang that serious attitude marh. i would rather common test larh. rv is just so chaotic and unorganised. rahh.

i've given up hope on this test liao. seems like the transition from sec 2 to sec 3 is really huge and unexpected. life in upper secondary is ruined. :/

my view on ultimate muggers of the muggers !

2007-02-24T00:07:00.000+08:00

back to blogging after a hectic week. there are a few hypocrites in my class(mainly 3). they are those who work hard but dont work smart. they are the ultimate muggers of the muggers and are just a selfish lot.

the intolerable stuffs these people do are:

you ask them to explain something, they take the fact that they are listening attentively to the teacher and has no time to explain to you at all. and thus ignores your request.
they secretly try to peep at your marks or tries unscrupulous ways just to know your result.

condition 1: if you got lower than them, they will be smiling and grinning from ear to ear in their hearts.
condition 2: if you get higher than them, they get utterly shocked and do not believe their ears.

these 2 points are merely brief descriptions. but they are HAPPENING RIGHT AROUND ME!

all in all, they are a bunch of hypocrites who are disgrace to society. imagine them going out to the society to work, and they display such behaviors- so shameful!

such people are 败类 larh. they are apparently selfish and kiasu. such people just turns me off.

feel like scolding them and giving them a slap on the face and ask them to wake up their ideas.

good things vs bad things

2007-02-20T02:15:00.000+08:00

wahh. this is like the first time i'm celebrating chinese new year in agony! oh what a cruel world! the idea that there are like lots of tests coming up after the cny break keeps ringing in my head. and i cant help but to brood over it. hai.

to us students in rv, life is all about tests, examinations, whatsoever-they-call-assessments (which are just exams in disguise but to a more high class name) and homework.

i regret not enjoying lower secondary life, though seniors always tell me that.

arhh. so to my dearest juniors outthere in rv. enjoy ur life as a sec 1 or 2 as much as u can. cos when u approach upper sec life, u'll end up being so stressed up like me!

well putting the bad things aside, there are always nice stuffs worth the mention!

first and foremost, i got lots and lots of angbaos and i'm very satisfied! ((: dont try to rob me whatsoever kae. haha.

and also i've eaten lots of food goodies as i'm around at my relatives house. so happy! i dont mind gaining the extra weight as long as i enjoy it loads. hehe. anw i'm too skinny liao. a bit of fat wont hurt! haha.

i think i'm going to have a mental breakdown if i dont do well in the upcoming tests. :'(

all the stress is enough to make me falter. hope can do well in the tests. then i'll definitely cheer up alot. ;D

may god bless me to pass my tests with flying colours!

chinese new year of the pig

2007-02-15T23:34:00.000+08:00

happy chinese new year everyone!

heheh. not really in the mood for cny. so sian and i'm apparently under trememdous stress! argh! next week got lots lots lots of tests larh. sian. then we cant possibly carry books to mug to our relatives house right? so it's like how we study? walao. sian larh.

cant refuse to go and bai nian cos of some tests right? so it's super ironic. damn.

i've learnt from mr choy that one must rest alot. hehe. love mr choy. cos he always tells us his life story and experiences. i think he's life is a little complicated. got lots of problems. but he's still so cheerful and everything. must learn from him. somemore a accomplished musician- french horn player. pro.

whee. tomorrow got pa steamboat at 6! haha. must be v. fun one. wheeee. cant wait. but not full attendance, so still a little shang gan. :(

suddenly, i miss band alot alot. i miss the times we chiong stabat, move along with the music so nicely, &us cheering each other to jiayou etc. arghh! really huai nian.

now hearing the recording of stabat i want to cry. sheesh. saddening.

2007-02-10T20:56:00.000+08:00

paiseh havent been updating. opps. i'm just too busy already. oh man. everyday all got homework derh. then cant really catch up cos the people in 3A are just too clever liao. ><

i've been finding a new blogskin but cant find a nice and suitable one. still think this one better. nvm i shall continue my search. :)

have been pratising hard for syf. must jiayou lerh. competition coming real soon. must get that gold with honours!

tomorrow buying new year clothes! whheee! haha new and nice ones. :)

&must go NLB search for physics articles. :/ sigh.

life these few days ...

2007-01-30T22:17:00.000+08:00

apparently, i'm having the same feelings throughout the few weeks. (i know i'm repeating myself) homework load is horrendous, a particular teacher pisses me off, and the in-cope-able stress i'm having. AHHH!

i just thought how life in rv would be like if there wasnt band for me. i think i'll be having severe depression. i'm anticipating school to end so that i can enjoy CCA after that.

i always console myself that after this lesson then a bit more it will be CCA! and this is what kept me going. i'm suuuuuuppppeeeeeer elated that there are many many many many band practises a week.

TUESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY!

i'll just have to try to pass monday. it's the hardest day of all. LOTS of lessons which only ends at 0345 and having monday BLUES.

band band band keeps me happiee. :D

to smile or not to smile

2007-01-28T22:16:00.000+08:00

arhh! sorry i cant blgo as much as i do in the holidays or during my lower secondary times.

life in 3A is utterly stressful! there's loads of homework and with lessons ending 0345 during 2 days in a week, CCA days, only wednesday is a breeze.

CCA is enjoyable. just that having homework on CCA days is just too much.

up till now i think i can still cope and handle well. cos looking at the state i'm in now, for me not having intentions of suicidal is already quite good. :/

homework load + bad aura = heavy stuffs weighing in my mind

i hope i can survive this week. ><

P.S. taiwan actress xu wei lun passed away after a fatal car accident.

this showed me that life is fragile. indeed.

disclaimer,

2007-01-23T22:49:00.000+08:00

disclaimer

i shall label myself as qiang in my tags from now on.

cos it sounds cute. whahahahaha. qiang! :D

bad aura ...

2007-01-23T22:38:00.000+08:00

oh damn. there's this bad aura around me! i'm serious about this larh. can kind of feeeeeel it.

i've been scolded by teachers alot alot of times! and it's always them finding fault in me. ahhh! even my classmates pity me larh. even they would say why i always kena scolded. damn suay! :/

shit. i must ward off my bad luck! wherever i walk, i can feel this bad aura around me which attracts the teacher's attention, and then they would look at me from head to toe, finding faults in me and then scold me. not those minor scoldings but those serious ones.

oh shit! there's really something wrong.

i suspect some teachers must be gossiping about me and then the news would spread among the teachers in the staff room. wahh say. i seriously think that this is what accounts for the baaaaaddd aura around me.

frankly speaking, if you would ask anyone of my classmates who always kena scolded or picked on by teachers (negative ones), no doubt it's me larh. really. oh no oh no.

something is telling me 2007 isnt right for me. damn.

touched :(

2007-01-21T15:15:00.000+08:00

&shashas!

i was desperately rushing my lunch before band with huipeng and rachael when i saw chingxin running to me and wishing me a happy birthday. i love the shirt! thanks!

ur the ones who know me best inside out! ;D

-

i'm exceptionally touched by how the band excos gave me the card.

&in the process i was reminded of how they took care of me even though i'm the youngest, and the only guy.

those memories of the many excos meeting we had, the many scoldings we endured.

it came flooding into my mind the moment chaiying gave the card to me. &the other excos behind looking.

thanks lots. love of you from the really really bottom of my heart. :D

as well as those who wished me happy birthday!

i sense my 15th year will not be a good one. :/

myer-briggs indicator.

2007-01-17T21:57:00.000+08:00

assembly programme today was slightly different. it was some kind of a personality test. but they strongly claimed that it was an indicator, not a test.

ALRIGHT! so it's an indicator.

anw i got the most common combination. ENFP.

it's damn common. but frankly speaking i didnt take the test seriously. xP

u know those words we suppose to chose? like which one u prefer out of the two words. i totally chose the one which sounded nice. though they clearly mentioned not to take into consideration that factor. o.o

i chosed words which totally relate to band like gentle etc. there's like alot larh! so i just chosed them. i completed that section the fastest! :D

fire drill was okay. thought i reacted quite fast for pa. in the end i wasnt that fast afterall. :/

cant stand those rants! we do this, cant. do that, also cannot! HOWWW?

homework homework,

2007-01-17T21:43:00.000+08:00

there's lots of homework! &i totally missed my first geog lesson today, cos of pa. :(

i missed alot! die die.

physics homework is of utmost priority! cant afford to get shouted in the face again. ><

mr choybanheng is totally funny! LOL. his actions are very exaggerated and he digress ALOT. like ALOT! u know, ALOT!

he can digress for an average of 15 minutes. with timings ranging from 10 to 30 mins! HAHA. but his digression are very entertaining and engaging.

i dont like my sitting arrangement! i feel very heavy there. like so 'out'. so corner-ed.

nvm. i hope i can get use to it.

alumni concert !

2007-01-15T23:08:00.000+08:00

WOW! alumni concert was a BLAST! :D

it was damn good. though i expected more for some songs but it's still so darn nice and impressive! saw many familiar faces on the stage! like the yuhua trumpeters. &also the rv trumpeters &more!

theres;

zamay
asrenee
sarimi
michelle tyoh
michelle chan
lynette
SOON BENG!

wenhui

P.S I'M SO GOING TO LEARN THE ALTO SAX! IT'S GODDAMN CHIO. SHIT. BUT TRUMM IS HOT! HAHA. :D

i'll prove it to you.

2007-01-14T16:44:00.000+08:00

1st round of syf members are confirmed! yay, i'm in! :DD

i'll be playing 3rds! yeah! they need me for support! no worries i'll provide it.

i thought i wouldn't get in as someone condemned me totally. i'll prove it to her.

just practised my trumpet. guess everything is alright. but after hearing the recording of our syf song, guess we are definitely inferior. :/

but nvm! we shall all jiayou. :D

the stress is still there. damn. it's all because of you. the one who totally condemn me. nvm, your true colours will be revealed anyway.

thanks guys who cheered me up! e.g those people who tagged, as well as rachael, yann, liling, and huipeng.

stressed up; &i mean it

2007-01-12T23:04:00.000+08:00

oh man! i'm really dying this time round. it's the very first time i'm actually feeling stress which i cant control. i'm totally having symptoms of depression.

keep thinking about negative stuffs
unable to relax
just keep thinking of the things which trouble me
tear

whoa. i broke down when i heard the recording of our syf song. damn touching plus the sad things which kept flashing through my mind.

&tomorrow's concert! die die. alumni band totally playing syf song. i better mentally prepare the people around me.

dang, this is for real.

oh man.

2007-01-11T23:34:00.000+08:00

dang,

i think i'm crazy. literally crazy. shit.

2007-01-11T00:03:00.000+08:00

wow ASK lessons for like 2 weeks? it's very sian considering the fact that it's those listen-forget stuffs. ><

but the thing which i find ASK lessons amazingly fun are the group discussions. especially if you have people like yingying, zhiying, chloe, huipeng, and me together. we were totally enjoying ourselves larh. plus we are damn noisy too. hey this shows we are participating in some HEATED UP discussions kae!

there's so many funny stuffs that happened it's too much for me to list here. but i'll just write down our teachers one by one. o.o

Language Arts- Brenda Law

Higher Chinese- Ang Geok Hoon

Mathematics- Choy Ban Heng

Bio med- Chow Ban Hoe

Chemistry- Chen P.K

Physics- LLM

Geography- Chan something

History- Desmond Lim

Singapore Comparative Studies- Tan Fong Wei

Mr Desmond Lim was announced as our class' history teacher and all the history students clapped and cheered larh. so suan-ing larh. not that i dont like or despise our geog teacher but i want Mdm Lalitha! she's sooooo nice. i'll just enjoy her lessons very much larh. haish.

anyway, i dunno who's Mr Tan Fong Wei. heard some other classes had yang mehmeh so i guess i'll not complain. haha. if i ever get mehmeh, i'll just predict i'll fail it.

Mrs Lee Lee Mui is our physics teacher. o.o

kae i shall stop here. it's midnight liao! oh my.

i'll just be random~

i love band &trumm &pa. (:

tags replies,

2007-01-08T21:16:00.000+08:00

hey guys, thanks for all the tags posted in my lovely cbox. haha. so here are the replies since there are too many.

erjie - i think xiaxue's posts are rather interesting lehh. like got some addiction that you would want to go back and read everytime.
ying - HAHA. yupp. i think it's very amusing. esp her old rv school diary! (:
O.o" - huh? what find this blog? dont get you. yarh but xiaxue expresses her feelings larh. she dont keep it inside or what. if she want say f then sh'll say derh.
dongying - thanks! must train stamina marh! SYF training! : D
sylvia - wahh wo men you yuan lehh! (: hehehe.
yanhua - woots thanks!
geraldine - yeah yeah. i'll try too.
pretty dog - thanks for advertising! ><

i love xiaxue !

2007-01-07T19:11:00.000+08:00

well i'm a regular reader of xiaxue.blogspot.com &i always find some of her posts really meaningful and worth reading. well one example is this :

http://xiaxue.blogspot.com/2005/09/fucking-unfair.html

if you just hate her whatsoever and refuses to read it, here's just a summary of it. xiaxue states how 'schools should not ABUSE their position of authority to punish students for something personal'. i think this is real true and applies to us teenagers at this age.

someone 'wrote something about her getting depressed, and the school forced her to close down her blog. The principal printed out her entries, made her do corrective work order, and even sent her for counselling'.

wahh i think this is damn hiong larh. guess the principal wouldnt want the students to say anything negative at all. i think this has something to do with freedom of expression.

and there were many examples in the post too. like how the teachers would go search names on the web to check on your blog etc. i think this is rather ironic larh. ><

it's damn unfair too.

anyway, the post by xiaxue mentioned about mrs look. i find it very amusing. go read. she even have a picture taken of her old rv school diary. hahahaha. nice one! : D

the words in pink are quotes taken from xiaxue.blogspot.com. in her post.

too fast -

2007-01-06T19:34:00.000+08:00

whee! new blogskin. love this one. i like blogskins with unique background designs! trying out on haloscan. not sure if it's user friendly or does it have nice designs etc.

it's the weekends lerh. finally a time where i can have a good sleep. have been waking up really early everyday cos of orientation. heard that the classes are having some ASK lessons. those that u can listen-and-forget types. (as stated by our teacher) so i didnt bother much either. since i was busy with orientation so i didnt went back class.

for yesterday's orientation, the sec 1s had a campfire. i must say the atmosphere was nice. it was at the grand stand there. arghh, band camp should have our campfire there larh. it's really nice, the whole scene, plus the vast night sky and the night lights at the buildings. but the performances by each classes were rather quality-less. it was like looking at every classes zihighing and fooling around i guess. they should have quality performances PLUS zihigh. thats the best. : D

i knw it's random but our SYF choice piece rocks! heard the recording, &was blown offfff~
it's like the band in the recording, fyi some pro jap band, had attained the level of goddess and god.

3 atomic apples : D

2007-01-04T20:22:00.000+08:00

hey everyone, guess all of you are adapting to ur new class? humph, since like after asking around all of you are rather satisfied. but for me, i'm always having sc stuffs so i aint getting to knw my classmates. though i recognise them and apparently know ALL their names! :D

at least i made an effort to know them lurh! which is commendable. but i guess there's someone who went overboard in suaning me like siao. i'm not the first person he suaned larh. it's like so many people experienced it after i complained and ranted.

__ thought his/she's very pro lorh. walao cant stand it. guess our class are dominated by the 2B people. felt a bit intimidated. kae is very. cos they are very bonded so well ... we are ostracised from that big group. ><

and the 4 of us - me, huipeng, ying and chloe were flauting our expertises. obviously zihighing. but everyone doesnt seem to appreciate us. o' well. except zhiying though. she joined us! we found one of our kind lo! (:

hope that pestering __ will just stop talking to me. hope that u know that u made my day everyday. argh, nvm i'll start a war!! that's why i've got a plan up my sleeves! hah! u dunno who u're messing with. *evil laughters*

updates

2007-01-02T20:13:00.000+08:00

i did my homework! left with commonwealth essay, xi you ji, and heymath.

&anw i also dont intend to do heymath. i totally have no inspirations for commonwealth essay larh. maybe when school reopens tomorrow and i see any interesting bargains happening i shall pen it down! xi you ji maybe i'll do it later.

i did my chinese compo. urmm i caan conclude that my chinese sucks cos its very simple. and my chinese is like my worst subject ever. so i wouldnt mind. but i consoled myself that it's short simple and sweet! short cos i just scrape through the 350 minimum word limit! o.o

kae everyone listen up, if i get 45 and above for this compo, i'll work hard for my chinese. yupp. i knw its random and i doubt so. but we shall see.

getting nervous for tmr! die die. xD

happey new year !

2007-01-01T19:55:00.000+08:00

hey guys, first day of the new year. why wouldnt one blog? haha. guess i shall pen down my new year resolutions to have a head start, &also so i can come back to refer!

first up, and of the highest priority, is to work really really hard for SYF. and to all of you out there. i set my priority here. which is SYF. heheh, never try to stop me.
work hard, study smart. hey being in this new class is really pressurising. all of them are superb in doing those projects. guess their CID grades are like A throughout while mine is jus a pathetic C with only one B. wow great o.o
continue loving all my loved ones. theres just too much meaning in just this statement.
be optimistic. look on the bright side and stay cheery. this is indeed no easy feat alright. it's hard to continue to stay nice and happy with all those impacts in life. life is never simple. and i mean never.
lastly, be myself. if i'm angry, i'm angry. i'm happy, i'm happy. i'm sad then i'm sad. dont hide those feelings. cos u know why? i've been hiding it too much in 2006. and i hate the feeling. people think you are nice to play with when you are like fuming inside. but i'm just putting on a brave front.

thanks 2I, band, trumm, and PA.

approaching 2007

2006-12-30T21:47:00.000+08:00

guess i'll be excited for 2007 to come. (:

in this picture she look quite mature. haha. but cute! hehehehe. okay i shall credit huipeng's phone for this photo!

hey hey! combine photo! she looks cuter here! (duh cos i'm around!) k i'm just zilian-ing. ever wondered why in the world would i pose with my hands liddat? cos she requested this pose for me. hahaha. i asked her how she want me to pose. &she did the 3 sign with her hands. so i did it. &she changed to this 1 sign. hhaaha. so cute lurh. (:

fwalalah !

2006-12-13T18:44:00.000+08:00

i'm quite proud of myself! haha. i did my book review in pen (cos it's kind of compulsory that we have to type) &also some of heymath. haha. i've really got nothing much to do this holiday. just lagging and waiting for band practices as well as PA BBQ this weekend. haha. ;D

&so i went for the SAF central band concert. though the pieces played are too heavy for us cos they are kind of too classic, but we enjoyed their tone and all. their projection was a blast. i also realised that the staff personels of esplanade have sharp eyes and are intimidating! they explained no eating in the concert hall and obviously i wouldnt bring like some KFC ULTIMATE CHICKEN MEAL in to munch on like some fatso. but i brought my handy dandy impact peach mints. my fav alrights. and i shared it with rachael, yinn yann, liling and michelle who were sitting around me. &those staff immediately came behind me and exclaimed NO EATING.

i was like omfg?! like how big was a peach mint. a little bigger than the size of this fullstop >> .

how would they ever notice ME passing those peach mints around. humph. &the lightings were dim then. maybe they are actually robots in disguise. cruel.

but in anyway i still ate bread in the concert hall when the lights were very very dim &the concert started. lucky me, they didnt notice anything. hohoho. crap loads with rachael. haha. like that guy there is so hiong etc.

oh yarh we spotted some scandalous couple. &i emphasise SCANDALOUS. gosh.
also saw someone who looked like wayne wong. hohohoho.

oh yes there's this cute little girl in our school's canteen! she's the bookshop's auntie's daughter. haha. she's just so cute larh. she would wave at me frantically whenever i'm warming up before band prac beside the canteen there. haha. oh i took a photo with her! i'll try to post it up.

i've always been reading xiaxue's blog and found the posts very influential. like this one;

http://xiaxue.blogspot.com/2004/09/ive-screwed-up-my-life.html

k though its a long post last time but i think its really worth reading. off to chat on msn. bye !

updates;

2006-12-07T15:50:00.000+08:00

wow i must say loads of thanks to those knowledgeable passerby(s) who chanced upon my blog.
&also i got to know more about IKAN KEKEK! ;D
i'm so going to convey this message to my fellow rv trumpeters so we can play 'singapore sunrise' with loads of emotions!

yesterday went ice skating with trumpets. it was sheer fun! i fell for like 3 times i think. and if i'm not wrong all 3 times i fell, i was with yinn yann! hhaha. i guess we kind of couldnt balance ourselves with each other's company! the whole rink was filled with our screams. i felt very tired like after a short while cos whenever i skate, i always possess this 提心吊胆 feeling. dont really like it so i took lots of rest. and the rink was extremely congested. i spotted many people who kept wanting to make people fall larhh. dunno whether its purposely. he would just like swerve right in front of you or just suddenly brake beside you to make you lose concentration and in turn fall. nvm those inconsiderate fools.

just cut my hair today. i changed my usual hairdressing salon. the service is quite good larhh. worth the money. my hair is short and neat now. not so obvious FATHEAD liao. haha.

tomorrow got band! WHEE! totally love CCAs larhh. lets try elephant calling with my trumpet tomorrow! saturday got tutor! gonna enjoy it loads again. i guess band has left a mark in my heart forever liao. ;D

SYF !

2006-12-04T21:07:00.000+08:00

yinn yann sent me the recording of with heart and voice by rv bandsmen in the 2005 syf. and i tell you it was superb larhh. let me count how many times my hair stood on end. hmm.

one, two, three, FOUR freaking times!

goodness gracious. i think the ever wonderful thing on earth which moves us are just band songs which make your hair stand! &gladly to say, our syf song for next year is also gonna blow everyone off.

;i got band tomorrow &i'm anticipating it! going through set piece again. found a phrase in the set piece very amusing. it states,

" IKAN KEKEK "

anyone please tell me what or who exactly is this IKAN KEKEK?

from my experience,
ikan = fish
kekek = ?

so what does ikan kekek got to do with our set piece. humph. i wonder ..

concert band <33

2006-12-03T23:50:00.000+08:00

CHEMISTRY E-CAR, WE WON;

2006-11-14T01:48:00.000+08:00

hey all. i hate to say this but i'm going for my trumpet chalet tomorrow! wont be back till friday. will definitely keep ur updated end of this week. ((: whee. my long awaited chalet is here! woots! gonna enjoy it ;D dont be jealous k?

anyway today had the science chemical e-car workshop &it was pure fun. first we had this sort of briefing and theres this like lecturer. so he was like posing us with questions to like make us participate. the thing is those questions are super hard and like ermm general knowledge kind. so there were me, erjie, huishan and yingying there. and he asked us questions like;

whats the chemical name of vinegar?

alright its like who the hell in the world knows it. i know i'm stupid and all. then someone answered it's

ACIDIC ACID.

like OMFG? how the hell did she ever know? and all 4 of us totally felt stupid! it's like so ><

k so we were kinda intimidated. then after that had the demonstration and trial thing for the chem e-car. so we have to design a car on the spot and its gonna move forward using chemical reaction. so the assigned products were BAKING SODA and VINEGAR. then the reaction would cause effervescense. i think the gas is carbon dioxide. yarhh. then i must admit our group was the one with the most problem. and the instructors were totally amused by our group. they were rather concerned whether what we did was right or not.

k so when we finished it. we were all so excited. then it was time for showdown! i'm not going to tell u the process. however, the outcome was;

WE WON THE CHEM E-CAR WITH THE CAR WHICH CAN TRAVEL THE FURTHEST DISTANCE!

oh my gawd! i was totally jumping lorhh. cos among the four of us, i was the one who had to propel the car. like shake it real hard for the reaction and setting it off etc. so i was over the moon. ;D WOOTS.

most importantly. we won the smart alex! during the briefing we were so intimidated by them cos they kept shooting their hands real high and answering those uber hard questions.

but because of our creativity and teamwork while creating the car, we totally outwin them! ;D WHEEEE. i can see that those smart alex were so disappointed when we won. WE ROCK! all 4 of us!

must say that while creating the car we really had teamwork. k its NO crap lorhh. we all like work tgt like siao. erjie with her pratical mind, huishan with her ensuring-it's-all-perfect attitude, yingying for making us all zihigh and enthu about designing the car and for lifting our morale so we were engaged, and for my witty ideas and questioning-mind.

its a perfect four. ;D

sorry for the self praisal but our excitement was indescribable. all of us had to agree we were SOOOOO happy larhh. ((: &we got prizes lorhh. ;D wooohooo!

hehheh!

far east flora;

2006-11-11T18:37:00.000+08:00

whee. went far east flora to buy soil for the science project competition thing. was raining but still had to go. and when i reached there the floors were so slippery that i almost fell several times. my mum took the opportunity to buy potted plants too. and then in the end it was all so heavy. the service there is quite good i must say. the people are kind and approaches you when u look in doubt. yeah so took a cab back home. i want to start the experiment asap. still got lots of stuffs to do in the later part of the holidays.

today told me something about myself;
dont like people who attitude you when u want to tell them something about you. its just similar to people disliking your blogs cos on your blogs are something about you. so true hurr. ;D

unprepared &unorganised;

2006-11-10T22:36:00.000+08:00

arghh today was really so unprepared and unorganised. firstly, me, huipeng, shixian, and vincent were 'coordinally invited' to act as extras for this SCHOOL VIDEO AWARDS aka SVA by rachelwwq. k so we reached school at 10.42 (exact) though asked to arrive at 10.30. haha. so we rushed to 1G classroom and there was a class inside larhh. most importantly, rachel was no where to be found. anyway the plan was cancelled. rachel you rock.

so we decided to do something real naughty. haha. and we did it! totally enjoyed it. it was like we owned to whole place. so cool. did many ~~illegal~~ legal stuffs alright. ;D
i guess no one would really experienced this in their life? it felt so cool. to be doing something with ur friends despite the fear of being caught. issit very obvious? opps xP

k so went to rachel's house lagg around. WE DIDNT HAD A PARTY! k larhh it was enjoyable and fun alright. &i acted as the main lead for the SVA thingy. play play only larhh. ;D haha. was just hilarious. looking at our stupid reactions etc. so rachel u better hurry and touch up and edit the video. better be great or you will be condemned FOR LIFE!

anyway i took this chance today in school to meet up with mrs tan lay yan to get the pH meter for the experiment. she taught me how to use it. &i'm now using it and trying out the pH of many things. haha. damn cool. it costs quite alot. S$100 plus larhh. and i realised SINGAPORE'S TAP WATER IS NEUTRAL!

ALL HAIL THE PUBLIC UTILITIES BOARD! &so i conclude;
singapore's tap water is safe for consumption! ;D maybe if i cant find water desperately, i'll resort to the taps! thank me for this piece of information!

a different ahpek incident;

2006-11-09T19:27:00.000+08:00

whoa i think im fated with the world's wierdest ahpek ever. as stated in my previous post, i went escape theme park with my sister. &we met a ahpek. he is a different one from the last one. dont worry. haha. but the incident is freaky. i just cant stand it. here goes;

&so me and my sister happily went into escape theme park cos we wanted to have some thrill on those rides. the sun was bright above us and the sky was a nice blue. indeed this day was the best day to be having fun at the theme park.

first and foremost. we wanted to take a ride which we think is no kick. and it's none other than this ride above! its sponsored by yakult. &theres this yakult structure in the middle of the whole spinning thing and those boxes are places where we lie on and the whole thing will SPIN around the yakult. sounds nice isnt it?

alright so me and my sister were lining up. and theres this ahpek in front of us who is also lining up to sit the ride. he's about in his 70s and he looks REAL DROWSY. alright so when it was time for the next ride, the ahpek was the last person available for the next ride. this means me and my sister had to wait for the next ride as it was full liao - the ahpek was the last one. yupp.

k pardon my drawing. the people werent suppose to stand but to lie front down. (cos i dunno how to draw people lying flat down) alright and the yakult ride spinned. and as it was spinning, i noticed the ahpek's eyes closed! ohmy, was he dead? OBVIOUSLY NOT.

he was ... SLEEPING. ._.

i was totally amused by this ahpek larhh. how can he sleep on a yakult ride??!! LOL. alright so when the thing stopped spinning, the ahpek woke up with a jolt and he immediately walked away being embarrassed. i wondered whats so embarrassing sitting a mere yakult ride? &so lets all magnify and look into the sit that the ahpek lie on. ladies and gentlemen, please be prepared for something real AMUSING AND DUDIAO.

and so, my dearest readers of -xueqiang.blogspot.com;
the ahpek drooled all over the sit while he was sleeping and this HUGE puddle of saliva was found at his sit. LMAO! &do you know what happened to the poor sit? obviously nobody dared to play the ride on that sit! AHHH i just cant stand that old uncle. ><

i'll blog more;

2006-11-09T18:36:00.000+08:00

hasnt been blogging for long. cos i was having a relatives chalet and then came back home also too tired to blog. there had also been 2 band practice on 2 consecutive days so was rather lethargic and could not blog. ermm i've got this very interesting incident again when i was at my relatives chalet. shall do more pics to illustrate like my previous post on the ahpek. be right back in my second post!

a day's review;

2006-11-01T22:22:00.000+08:00

YAYEE i'm back from band &i'm so hyper. hahahaha. band today was nice. we practised the syf piece for the whole day. and i must admit i did put in my best effort. yupp ((: &i'm very happy about it.

so after that went to eat with huipeng shixian and claire. was very funny. haha. anyway my sports shoe i wore today gave me huge problems! the sole totally dropped off larhh. but lucky still can walk even without the sole. hahaha. i early already know that the sole is like about to drop liao but i didnt know it would drop off today! ahhh. even putting rubber band to secure the sole coudnt help. cos the rubber bands kept snapping! >:(

alright, shall not continue longer cos i have something else to do. >< alright byebye. ((:

some _ ahpek;

2006-10-31T22:44:00.000+08:00

last post for today. &its going to be rather amusing i guess. k so i went to jurong point to buy some stuffs and to print some scores for tomorrow's band practice.

&i was in the lift when this very old ahpek came in. i was kind enough to smile at him. instead he just kept looking at me like i was some boy from outer space who tried to make friends with him. ><

alright, so i was holding on to my handphone sms-ing my sister and stuffs. for i hope i can meet her in jurong point or what larhh. so the lift elevated down and the old uncle became more and more interested in me.

and thus, he started eye-ing my handphone. i sensed that he was approaching nearer to me, so as to catch a glimpse of what was on the screen of my handphone. i suspect that he hadnt seen anykind of such thing. he seems like i was holding some weapon from lala land that posed a threat to him whatsoever. by natural human instinct, i also start to move away from him, until i was leaning against the wall of the lift. however the ahpek could not resist his temtation of looking at what i was typing.

okay so this was exactly what i was typing. doesnt it sound so normal? but that uncle behaved like i was communicating with some terrorist &he would want to know exactly what my plan was so that he can arrest me whatsoever. &as usual i sent out the message to my sis.

when this usual 'message sent' thing appeared on my screen, the ahpek jerked a little. he seem rather shocked that the 'message sent' thing appeared out of nowhere. &so he started looking at me, &i looked back at him. yes, straight in the eyes.

and when i was staring at him in the eyes, he started smirking at me. surprised by his sudden reaction, i tried to ignore him and look away.

&so the lift reached the first floor and both of us walked away. i was totally du diao by this ahpek. to my horror, he started singing some 'long shu xia' while he was walking away larhh. i swear i was laughing hysterically in my heart. this ahpek is just so sinnical and _

what an amusing incident. maybe i should teach that ahpek more about technology in the 21st century. if not he will go around scaring innocent young children like us with his _ behavior.

random stuffs;

2006-10-31T13:41:00.000+08:00

i'm going out later to buy some stuffs cos i'm really rotting at home. my blog seems very empty cos its very long but only 1 post. but i hope to flood it with long long posts ((:

i must thank ying for scanning the 2007 booklist and the singapore comparitive studies holiday homework. hehehe. thank you very much ((:

oh yes, please also remember to wear class tee on the first day of chalet! its on 21st november. yeahh so wear it on 21st november! i believe we wont feel very much about 2i`o6 parting during the chalet lohh. cos its still going to be very clique-ish if nobody plans games. zeming and the boys will play dota in the room, shasha will play taidi, &tingting will gossip and play card games too. so its not productive lohh.

thus, i urge jonathan or ying to plan games please! then it'll bond us together and we will feel more about each other! ((:
